R.I.P. ROBERT ASHLEY 3.28.1930-3.3.2014
I don't often feel the need to comment on people I admired's passing, because if I didn't personally know them then what's the point? Still, was very saddened when I heard the news about Bob earlier today. A true American legend, he fundamentally changed the way I, and many others, viewed composition, performance, and music in general. And he just seemed like such a good guy. Intensely smart, funny, dedicated to art and dedicated to the notion that art can give one something to live for. Man, an all time great. And while we are (unfortunately) on this topic, R.I.P. Alain Resnais, who breathed his last on Saturday. Been a long winter. Things should be heating up around here for Spring, hopefully we'll have some updates.
